Meetings I’ve attended
Raben Mutter
Can I write my diary like my blog? I took photos of my steak yesterday, but no other shots of people, the place, the event. There was a selfie by David as we left Vienna. There was a group photo at the end. There was that good talk with John Fenessey at the Restaurant over dinner. Continue reading
Why I nearly cried today

Mum’s Biography
I came for her birthday and decided we finally have to get this biography done. After 90 years you certainly could have something to say.

Todd Burrier
Have I written about him yet? I certainly should have. One of my prime mentors who inspires me almost daily! A few years ago, I translated for a daylong seminar with Todd Burrier in Vienna. This time, I had the privilege to just be a part of the audience. As we arrived he was in the corridor meeting and greeting the incoming visitors. When you hear his vlogs, you know, that is Todd, through and through. He thanks YOU for being allowed to serve you! Is that leadership with heart? I do remember writing about this! It just inspires me so much. I did buy the English version of his book from Amazon, after purchasing the German one for him to sign, which I gave to Josef.
Happy 70th Birthday Herbert Giller

President van der Bellen visits “UNO City”
The Viennese lovingly call it UNO City. We call it the VIC. Most Viennese don’t even know what V.I.C. stands for. It is the Vienna International Centre. And that is the third United Nations Headquarters, after New York and Geneva, Vienna.
What a week! From welcoming the Austrian Federal President to the United Nations in Vienna, to the Toastmasters Social Event, how can I sum it up? Continue reading
